Modular system solution for intralogistics

At Fachpack in Nuremberg, Expresso is presenting a new-generation mobile lifting and transport system with a digital interface.

Expresso is presenting a new-generation mobile lifting and transport system at Fachpack in Nuremberg. The modular and versatile system is characterised by its digital interfaces, which also allow the system to be integrated into Industry 4.0 scenarios.

The lift2move handling and transport system from Expresso is the linchpin of internal material flow processes in many industries today. Whether it is about the feeding of packaging systems, pick-up and delivery services between warehouse and production or the positioning of components in assembly.

„It bears the suffix solution, We want to emphasise two aspects in particular: Firstly, that the lift2move is not a stand-alone product, but a modular and extremely versatile system solution that can be optimally customised to the customer's tasks and processes. And secondly, that the new lift2move generation has a whole range of system features and characteristics that clearly set it apart from the previous versions.“

New features include the Improved design of the chassis, which is now made entirely of steel, simplified handling and optimised payloads. In addition, the lift2move solution about Integrate digital interfaces into Industry 4.0 environments now - for predictive maintenance, for example.

Steel provides improved stability

For the new running gear of the lift2move solution all aluminium components have been removed from the design of the floor assembly, so that it is now made entirely of steel. This results in numerous advantages for the user. In addition to greater static stability and improved driving characteristics, the change in material has enabled two important design optimisations to be implemented: A Extended wheelbase, which gives the entire system a high degree of stability, and a Widened lifting mast base, which increases the torsional rigidity of the floor assembly.

„At our Fachpack stand 570 in hall 4, we will be demonstrating that this not only improves the smooth-running character of the lift2move solution but that this also equates to a considerable gain in ergonomics, safety and ease of use.“

Also on the Specialist pack The possibility of extending the handling and transport system with the Advanced Lift Control for the lift mast is shown. This additional control module enables automated approach of up to six freely programmable lift mast positions. Other additional features include a height-adjustable lift path limiter that can be attached to the mast, a mechanical lift path adjustment system that extends the lift path and a separately driven telescopic mast that can be used to adjust the lift path without affecting the overall height of the lift2move. solution can be enlarged.

With the lift2move solution the company offers a multifunctional, flexible and ergonomic handling and transport solution that can be used for numerous applications. Optimise material flow processes in warehousing, order picking, shipping, production and assembly can be used. It can be used as a lifting and tilting device, as a turning and holding system, as a gripping and turning unit, as a feed and discharge system and much more. The lift2move model range solution currently comprises four single-mast variants with load capacities from 85 to 225 kg and one double-mast variant with a load capacity of 400 kg. All versions can also be combined with six trolley types (narrow, short, etc.).
